Hey guys, know I've not been active on here recently. However, does anyone have any info regarding prop shafts? I need to know if the props are interchangeable across engine codes due to exploding mine.

Long story short is a giant rock on the road that I didn't see till the last minute has bumped my centre box into my prop shaft and caused it to shatter. I can only find DE props currently

So my Zed is approaching the 100k mark and I am piecing together the parts and labour needed to replace the timing chain, tensioners gallery gasket etc. However I'm finding it pretty hard to get a hold of the chain from any retailers online.

 

Does anyone know of a good place to be looking?

 

Cars a 2007 HR

 

Thanks,

Gonna call dibs. I'll drop you a message once I'm home from work buddy if that's okay?

In the first picture is that with or without spacers?

I destroyed my original knob getting it off in place of my Mishimoto weighted lump. As Willsy said, make sure you use a pair of good molegrips

I completely messed up my schedule and didn't even get chance to get round to see you guys. Ill make sure I get photos at Donnington though

Apply some heat with a hairdryer to help with breaking down the adhesive too. Obviously don't use a heat gun lol

Old article, but not far at all from me. It's a fast road with a deceptive blind summit

I'll be down with the camera this weekend, unfortunately the Zed will not be making the trip but hope to get a whole heap of photos for you guys. If any of you aren't happy with me taking photos just give me a shout, I'll make myself known

Gonna watch with baited breath now!

D'aw Zed friend

how much would you say there would be priced up at if you were to buy them now second hand?

So as I've come to up rate my brakes this weekend I've noticed that the front left bleed nipple has been sheared off and is now lodged in the caliper.

 

The guys at my preferred garage are going to attempt to drill out and re-tap the caliper, however I may need to purchase a replacement pair.

 

Hit me up if you have a pair of front calipers

You were following me for a few sets of lights before I pulled into the station to fill up. Gave you the 'a-ok' hand signal out of the window

Commenting purely to sub to this build. You're hitting up pretty much all the points I want to address, so seeing what you've done gives me a good road map to follow

Just had my CatBack fitted by Tony Banks in Leeds so thought Id get you guys the cold start whilst im working on getting some fly bys etc.

And be very careful when driving: You've reduced the stagger front to rear by half, so the car will be significantly more likely to snap oversteer than it was before.

 

Oh Great!!! I didn't know that!!!

 

Should I think about buying others?

 

Nah just take your time getting used to it, either that or just hoon everywhere haha

Noob question, doesnt matter if my cars 2007 or not for this right?

When I cleaned mine up it was a case of working the solution and degreaser in with a brush, letting it dwell, then rinsing. If the degreaser is doing its job you shouldn't need to jetwash

How uninspired. Maybe this means the final 370 and the new Z car will come out in 2019??

Drift scars! Looks like a grizzled veteran now

Just asked him about lumping the kit together and to see if he would do a different price. Think he said he'd knock off £50 if I bought it all as one

I literally messaged this guy about the kit the other day. If you end up grabbing the kit before I do, let me know how it is

After seeing it in person I can vouch for it's condition! GLWS matey
